Considering their history, and Ogas recent post, this new book is *not* on fandoms' reading lists. Or feminists' reading lists. In fact, I really don't want to think of the sort of people who might buy this book. :(

It's not directly Fanlib-related, but I'm posting a link here because I theink many of the same people in fandom were involved, and it covers many of the same issues: male academic outsiders tried to profit off of fandom, got their over-privileged, obnoxious, unprofessional arses kicked, and then ran away crying about evil fangirls.

Yeah, and so is "Creepy misogynist transphobic heteronormative fake science," sadly. I really liked one of the tags on their books' page on Amazon, though: "PhDs written in crayon." ^^

It's hit Metafandom now, and either Unfunny Fandom or Unfunny Business on Journalfen, too.

The book hasn't even been properly released yet -- it's still on pre-order -- and it already has 119 tags, at least 100 of which are unflattering in the extreme. Ah, fandom: we may forgive, but we never forget. ^^
